Yankees acquire Steve Pearce and DFA Brandon Laird

The Yankees announced this afternoon that they have re-aquired first baseman and outfielder Steve Pearce from the Astros for cash. To make room for Pearce on the 40-man roster, the Yankees have designated third base prospect Brandon Laird for assignment, according to Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports. Pearce started the season in the Yankees organization, but opted-out ...
Yankees sign undrafted free agent Daniel Aldrich

The Yankees have signed a non-drafted free agent out of the College of Charleston, outfielder Daniel Aldrich, to a $150K deal, according to Kendall Rogers of Perfect Game USA. Typically non-drafted free agent signings like these are purely low level depth moves, but in this case he might be something more. Hailing from the same Alma ...
Yankees sign a pair of Nicaraguan lefties

The Yankees have signed two 16-year-old lefties out of Nicaragua - Corby McCoy and Luis Garcia, according to Ben Badler of Baseball America. McCoy is the more highly touted of the two. He's 6-foot-3 and 170-pounds. At such a young age he is very projectable and already throws a 91 mph fastball. He signed for $150K. Garcia ...
Yankees release Russell Branyan

Yankees have released Russell Branyan. — Donnie Collins (@swbyankeesTT) August 10, 2012 A back injury robbed Russell Branyan of having a chance at making the team out of spring training. Raul Ibanez filled the role Branyan would have played with the Yankees and he never got a chance despite hitting .311/.444/.656 in 153 plate appearances in the ...
Yankees sign Derek Lowe

It looks like the Yankees will go with David Phelps on Monday in CC Sabathia's spot and will go with Derek Lowe as their new long-man in the 'pen. Have to say, it's a bit surprising they would go with Lowe over some of the pitchers they have in Triple-A, Adam Warren especially. Brian Cashman likes ...
Yankees designated Ramiro Pena for assignment

When the Yankees activated Casey McGehee the other day it turns out they didn't just send the light hitting shortstop Ramiro Pena to the minors, but they designated him for assignment, according to Chad Jennings of the Journal News. This doesn't necessarily mean that the Yankees will lose him though. He has to pass through waivers ...
Yankees release Wise after he refuses MiLB assignment

When the Yankees traded for Ichiro Suzuki a couple of weeks ago it meant the end of Dewayne Wise's days in Pinstripes. The Yankees DFA'd Wise that day, he cleared waivers, but now we are hearing that he has refused an assignment to the minors and was released, according to Mark Feinsand of the NY ...
Yankees trade for Casey McGehee

The one spot the Yankees were really focused on upgrading was Jayson Nix at third base and it appears they have done so. Joel Sherman of the NY Post has reported a deal is done between the Yankees and Pirates that will send Casey McGehee to the Bronx in exchange for reliever Chad Qualls. The Yankees ...
Yankees designate Dewayne Wise for assignment

In order to make room for the newly acquired Ichiro Suzuki on the Yankees roster they have designated Dewayne Wise for assignment. Wise, 34, is a 10 year veteran in MLB who came to the Yankees with a strong defensive reputation, but without much else. After working with hitting coach Kevin Long, Wise said he felt ...
Yankees trade for Ichiro Suzuki

The Yankees landed Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki in a trade that sent minor league pitchers D.J. Mitchell and Danny Farquhar to Seattle, according to Jack Curry of the YES Network. Ichiro, 38, has struggled offensively for the second consecutive year after an amazing first 10 seasons in MLB. Over 95 games so far this year he is ...
